Max Verstappen: “One second, I’m not speaking before he’s leaving.”
Giles Richards: “Seriously?”
Verstappen: “Yeah.”
Richards: “Because of the question last year?”
Verstappen: “Yeah.”
Richards: “You want me to leave?”
Verstappen: “Yeah.”
Richards: “It’s because of the question I asked you in Abu Dhabi?”
Verstappen: “Yeah.”
Richards: “About why you…”
Verstappen: “Yeah.”
Richards: “About Spain?”
Verstappen: “Get out.”
Richards: “You’re really, really upset about it?”
Verstappen: “Get out. Get out. Now we can start.”
I somewhat understand Max’s frustration. A whole season has happened, with wins, and losses, DNF’s, etc. Why ask about one specific incident saying “Do you regret this?” It seems to narrow the entire season to “Remember that penalty you got against the British driver?”
I’m there there were lots of places he lost points, and that was somewhat Max’s thought I think.
